This piece may seem like a contradiction, as it marries the symbolism of spring buds with the promise of a bountiful harvest, signifying the rewards reaped from fulfilled growth.
 
'Budding Harvest' emerged from a deeply contemplative prayer, reflecting on life's ability to challenge and convince us that we can't handle its weight. It's easy to feel like we're merely surviving. Yet, in the midst of this struggle, God plants seeds of promise.
Just as the first buds of spring signify the beginning of growth, 'Budding Harvest' reminds us that there's a profound promise of reward. God's faithfulness carries His divine plan to fruition. He assures us of the ultimate harvest that awaits, even when the challenges of life seem insurmountable.
